P1870 Help! NOT PASSING EMISSIONS!
Hey guys. Need some help here. My dad has a 98 Lumina that will not pass emissions because it throws a p1870 code. which is TCC slipage. I do have a scanner that will delete the code, but what can I do to fix this? Does the Torque converter have to be changed? I can't believe that it fails emissions because of a lil slippage. Supid if you ask me. Cause if the car went on the dyno I am pretty sure it would pass that way. Thanks for the help in advance.
